For fans of most football clubs, this news story would create excitement and intrigue. All I feel is scepticism. How many false dawns have we had? I really thought the Jordanians would take this club forward. I know. It's like, 'not again.'

It's not very clear was the £20m offer for the land or for the club?

If having a gas is on tonight, I would suggest a quick phone call by Geoff to Wael could prove to be an interesting listen. If it is a factual article can't see a problem with all parties telling us the truth. By all parties I mean Wael, the Consortium and the Bristol Post.

Well there were rumours that there was something happening in terms of ownership so this isn't a surprise, but it's brilliant that the media are finally reporting on it so it seems to be taking steps towards substance.
That article reads like a massive fail for Wael/DS:
"The Al-Qadis have effectively had the club up for sale for more than a year after becoming frustrated at covering losses, which totalled £65,000-a-week in their accounts for 2017/18, and the ongoing inability to find a new home for the club, which would help alleviate that financial black hole."
They will leave having achieved the square root of sod-all.

the bigger question is..... WHo broke the NDA and leaked it to the Press Apparently some heavies involved in this are none to pleased, even though it’s a BP article and are flying in to make or break the deal...There are even suggestions Wael should leave the country should it go wrong. Must be serious. From an inside source. How has this turned into a supposed mafia-style deal? Or this is just how big business deals work? I wish there weren't actually so many whistle blowers, I'd be in blissful ignorance now...but I just can't stop logging onto this forum!!

I guess it had to happen one day if Wael wouldn't just sell up and go quietly? There seems to be some truth in the story given someone has made a bid for the Fruit Market site, and we know BCC want the area around it developed.

I was just down the Mem, and I saw Wael being bundled into a black limousine, wearing cement boots, and someone's dumped a horse-head in the centre circle.

I'm not sure why people are happy it's being reported in the BP? Surely it would have been better for any deal to be concluded without the prying eyes of all and sundry all over it?

Knew about this months ago along with the fruit market. Hope the negative keyboard warriors can now stop with their un informed opinions now it’s out in the open
Unlike City we tend to let only solid information out into the public domain. UTG

Was told over the weekend developers not happy with wael and he pulled a flanker I really hope he isn't trying to scupper it so he can cling on to his fiefdom as club president...

Not really the way you would expect it to be done. But then there seemed to be all sorts of sh** going on behind the scenes of the last takeover.
